how many pair

how many pair do you winter ?.

a lot edgie, I cant kill a pigeon so I tend to winter more than I should......hopefully next year will be a decent racing year so numbers will inevitably fall during racing.

15 this year

Surely, the amount of pairs one keeps at the end of the year, depends greatly on the size of ones loft and set-up.

Are you talking about race birds Edgie?  Or old birds and young birds that have raced this year?  Are you including Stock birds?

Thanks for that Edgie - We will be racing everything we have left at the end of the year.

Only Yearlings though, as we have nothing older than this years birds that can race. All our older birds are Stock birds and too precious to race. Plus they were not born here and have never flow out. The furthest they have been away from their loft is at the end of their aviary lol.
